Animal Structural Integration

The course is divided into three sections: Equine, Canine and Neuro-Fascial Agility

Equine Structural Integration Course

The Equine Course takes the material from the book Equine Structural Integration and expands on it as only a hands on course can. The course is offered as a weekend seminar Friday evening through Sunday with an emphasis on hands on application with horses.

The course lectures will precede the actual hands on work. The lectures are short with lots of time for questions and clarification of any techniques used by working with each other–humans seem to receive feedback more readily from other humans–before applying them to the horses.

This is not a paint by numbers technique course. You won’t be taught how to cook a recipe, but rather how to take what is in front of you–tissue issue or nervous system–and appropriately balance it.

To facilitate your learning and to provide you with a guide we’ll work with the horses in three organizing sessions. You will be able to leave this course and immediately put your knowledge to work for you and your clients.

Neuro-Fascial Agility

Neuro-Fascial Agility is a unique course that addresses the needs of the animal’s nervous system to adapt to changes in the structure.

Imagine, if you will, that the animal is made up of two parts that promote movement:

1. the hardware—fascia, muscles… and

2. the software—the nervous system.

If either of these two systems is out of synchronization the body will not move correctly. In fact if they are out of synchronization the body will move in an immature way—as compared to where it is evolution.

Too often we interfere with the development of the either the software or the hardware in our training of our animals, in fact ourselves, and don’t resolve this disconnect.

This course will demonstrate ways to “see” this disconnect, as well as ways to intervene.

One of the above classes is required as a pre-requisite to this course.
